[Verse 1]
It was fun playin' with knives
Until a blade stuck in the left side of my chest
Surprise
I'm not down again
I turned the page
The story's mine
No more watchin' the world from my doorstep passin' me by
(Passin' me by)

[Pre-Chorus]
And I just keep changin' these colors, colors, colors, colors
I'm not in the same place that I was, I was, I was, I was

[Chorus]
But if somebody tells me I'll go back to my old ways
I'm gonna say "no way"
I'm out of the doorway
I'm hearin' them all say I'll go back to my old ways
Not goin' back to my old ways

[Post-Chorus]
Not goin' back to my old ways
(Not goin' back to my old ways)

[Verse 2]
Now I know what's good for me
All that I need
And I can't wait to sink my teeth in and take another bite
And the best part about it is I'm the only one who can do somethin' about it
I fill the well with some water, it's overflowin'
Black into gold
Who knew it'd be so bright without the blindfolds?

[Pre-Chorus]
And I just keep changin' these colors, colors, colors, colors
I'm not in the same place that I was, I was, I was, I was

[Chorus]
But if somebody tells me I'll go back to my old ways
I'm gonna say "no way"
I'm out of the doorway
I'm hearin' them all say I'll go back to my old ways
Not goin' back to my old ways

[Post-Chorus]
Not goin' back to my old ways
(Not goin' back to my old ways)

[Bridge]
Every scar
The flames burnt them all
I'm not afraid to fall
I'm spiraling, I'm spiraling
I pass the stars
I'm not burning out
I'm not afraid to fall
I'm not afraid anymore

[Breakdown]
And I just keep changin' my colors
I'm not in the same place that I was, I was
(And the best part about it is I'm the only who can do somethin' about it
I fill the well with some water, it's overflowin')
Black into gold
Who knew it'd be so bright without the blindfolds?

[Pre-Chorus]
And I just keep changin' (changin') these colors, colors, colors, colors
I'm not in the same place (same place) that I was, I was, I was, I was

[Chorus]
But if somebody tells me I'll go back to my old ways (old ways)
I'm gonna say "no way" (no way)
I'm out of the doorway (no way)
I'm hearin' them all say I'll go back to my old ways
Not goin' back to my old ways
